Time to argue for a more fuchsia shade of mauve without actually getting
into the substance of what you're doing...:)

I wonder about the top-level agents/ directory.  If we regard this
material as documentation, perhaps the "skills" should go there too?  As
readable text, they might just help to improve human skills as well,
assuming we think we still need those.  Under Documentation, they could
be built into the rendered docs and made more widely available.

Otherwise, if this is primarily a development tool, perhaps under tools/
makes sense?

I lack strong opinions here, but figured I would ask the question.
